The author's collection of one of the most popular and original modern scientists, the famous British zoologist Desmond Morris, includes the main works that brought him world fame: the scandalous “Naked Ape” is the brightest symbol of the era of the sixties, which had a significant influence on the formation of the views of Western society and Having gone through more than twenty reprints, its total circulation exceeded 10 million copies. In an accessible and fascinating form, its author presented the original version of the origin of Homo sapiens, as well as how ancient animal instincts, the animal nature in each of us, determine the development of modern human society; “The Human Menagerie” is a kind of continuation of the sensational bestseller, which also had a huge success and has been translated into dozens of languages, and “Basic Instinct” is a detailed study and analysis of all types of human touch, from handshakes to sexual hugs. At one time, Morris’s work created a real sensation both in scientific circles and among the general public. To this day, controversy surrounding his books continues.
